Answer:

0.015 and 3/200.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5% is equal to 0.015. Percents are always equal to their decimal counterparts; basically, the number over 100. Dividing 1.5 by 100 will yield us 0.015.

0.015 is going to be equal to 15/1000, or 3/200. Since we did 1.5/100, we need to multiply both sides of the fraction by 10 so there are no decimal points. Therefore, this is 15/1000. If we divide both sides of this fraction by 5, then we get 3/200, which is the most simplified form.

5.46 seconds

980 meters

900 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

it would first be which has the largest number after the decimal point, so if there’s three it goes first (0.12*3*). Then you would pick the one that is the smallest form of measurement, which would be meters in this case.
